JURGEN KLOPP has been given the all-clear and released from hospital after a health scare.
The Liverpool manager checked himself in for tests on the advice of club doctors and missed training on Wednesday.
The German gaffer had complained of feeling ill after a charity trip to South Africa. However, after scans at a city centre hospital, he was allowed home after they confirmed there were no serious problems. Although the Mirror claim that Klopp will have follow-up appointments to monitor his health.
The Anfield giants quickly moved to ease fears over their boss and said it was just a precautionary measure. A statement read: "Jurgen Klopp has attended a hospital appointment today as a precautionary measure, after feeling ill.
“He is being assessed by doctors and will be absent from training on Wednesday as a result. "There are currently no plans for Jurgen to remain in hospital beyond his appointment and he will therefore return home this evening; however, he may require further check-ups in the coming days."
The Mirror went on to claim that club officials later confirmed the matter was not serious as tests showing a positive diagnosis. It is believed to just be a minor ailment caused by the travel to the Southern Hemisphere, with the change in climate leading to infections and coughing. Klopp is expected to attend the pre-match press conference on Friday ahead of Liverpool's clash with Southampton on Saturday.
He visited Cape Town to attend a charity event at Hout Bay University Community. This is not the first time that Klopp has suffered a health scare since moving to Anfield. The 50-year-old suffered appendicitis back in February 2016 and was forced to miss a match against Sunderland.
